Don't think there's any big hotels in Cologne that could fit all the people!

Last year's hotel was really nice! Seems WCG have cut down their budget quite a lot of they prefer people to stay in a hostel rather than a hotel!

Could have something to do with the costs. Europe is very expensive., 700 people plus maybe about 30-40 referees. Lets say 2 to a room.

370 x 200 euro a night.
And they pretty much pay 4th-8th for all with the addition of 3rd and 9th for refs.

You're looking at 300-400,000euro. Not to mention, breakfast lunch and dinner they provide, just to begin. I dare say it is a lot more expensive than Seattle or Singapore.

200€ / night? What.. if you're unlucky and have a good hotel its maybe 120 a night.. They won't book 5 star luxus super hotels T_T

How many persons are in that room? 200€ for a 2 bed room seems WAAAAAAAAAY too much.

In that case online prices are off the charts for hotels in Amsterdam. Regardless Dknight and I are staying with the Head Admin from WGTour. Erkenbrand, so it will cost $0.00. Figured we just take him out to dinner to say thanks.

And he can spoon Dknight if he wants to.

You can buy tickets at saturn (like best buy) or order them online, 1 day 7.50euro 4days 26euro. But I'm sure you will be able to buy them at the entrance, too. They also offer buses from all major german cities to Koeln.

Hi guys,
could anyone recommend me a hotel that me and my friends could stay at during WCG? It shouldnt be too expensive, but also not too filthy if u know what i mean :-). Thx
In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and - SNAP - the job's a game.
